Is everyones DH on board with the dreaming?

Some days Dh starts talking about wanting another baby and other days he gets freaked out by the financial pressure. Especially since we decided we'd only do it if I could stay home. Of course he was the same way about Tristan! He wnated a son, but every once in a while he'd freak out until I actually got pg. Then he was excited as I.

Den isn't sure what he wants, but neither am I, I do think he is the same as me though, and he wants a little girl and if he could be guaranteed a girl, he would have another baby in a heartbeat!

DH wants another but is terrified by the big financial picture of college, braces, retirement....
He'd also like to take a vacation or be able to finish the basement and doesn't like the fact that daycare eats that $$$.

So, here we go trying for #3!!!!

My dh worries mostly about money, and having time for all 3 of them.... mostly having the time for all 3 of them.

Funny story here....(don't feel obligated to read because it's long)
On the outside, you'd think that I wore the pants in the family, and that dh did what I wanted. But in reality, DH gets his way on allllll the really big decisions. Since he put his foot down about no more kids and since I sold almost all my baby stuff in the garage sale :eek: I've started pointing this out to him. Regularly.

The latest is that he went in halfsies with his father on an obscenely large trailer (the kind you pull behind a truck) without clearing it with me first. The icing on the cake is that we will use it 1 time every 2 years and his father will use it for work!!!!!!

He knew I was PI$$ED beyond belief, so he actually said "SO..... when do you want to start trying for another baby?" I told him to bite me! Then, he was like "no, I know it's something you really want, and I want you to be happy."

At first I thought, oh, don't take advantage of this opportunity, but then I came to my senses. "Trailer baby" as I like to call him/her is in the works!
